The motor is installed in the drainage channel where the water builds up and floods the casing. Best way to avoid it is to relocate the motor to the boot/trunk or keep the drainage tubes clear so the water flows away properly.

How do you get tape of to get top part of housing out, could you just drill into it and break out?
@db192 26 күн бұрын
Some peel it off or cut with a blade, you can access the back of it from the cabin. Sit on the seat and reach past the fabric panels and you’ll be able to get at the tape from the other side. Once you have most of it off then pry the housing open, don’t worry about damaging it as you won’t need it again. I would be careful with drilling as you don’t want to damage the motor inside!

The mounting of the bracket is shown on 4:38, but not the dismantling. This would be interesting, as it is not so easy. There is second nut on the lower side, which is not very accessible. Also, if the two upper nuts of the belt cover are removed and the cover slightly moved out, the placing of the cover is much easier. The belt cover actually covers the volve cover.

My girl is doing this now after 19 years on the road. I noticed the parking sensors weren't working when the clutch was up which seemed strange. Drove in the dark today and realised the reverse lights weren't working with the clutch up either. Has to be the sensor. I'm pleased it's not expensive.

I recently bought a 2007 z4 and the previous owner said the key doesn't work. To which I thought it was a simple battery replacement. I opened it just like you did but it's missing the small plate looking base where the battery sits, it only has the metallic arc on top with a single solder point. For comparison, at 1:28 there's a small plate where the battery was sitting. Looks like the previous owner had no idea how to get the battery out and removed everything. I'm trying to get a new battery but I'm worried it won't work because it's missing the 'base' where the battery sits. Any thoughts? Thanks!

@db192 3 ай бұрын
Have you removed any tape? If not that’s the first thing and you can get a better angle to remove it if you sit in the car and reach down past the inner lining. If the tape is off you will need a long pry bar or something similar to lever under the edge of the top cover. Don’t worry about damaging it, you won’t need it again. Once you have the motor out, you will need to pull hard on the bottom cover to snap the cable tie holding it in. There is only one and it will break eventually, just be careful of the hydraulic lines that sit underneath the bottom cover.
